“We aim to foster faith in the Ferry and Barnhill with the 5 Marks of Mission at our core”
Central to the Church (of Scotland) is our love and worship of God through following the teachings and examples of Jesus Christ. Few people would argue that Jesus didn’t exist and through the bible God has spoken to us through Jesus. After Jesus’ death and resurrection, God sent the Holy Spirit to help us live life His way.
We express our love for God by our love and practical care for each other and for those we live with and encounter in our daily lives, following The Five Marks of Mission:
- To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
- To teach, baptise and nurture new believers
- To respond to human need by loving service
- To seek to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation
- To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth
We can be a Christian on our own, but we’ll get help and encouragement in a group.
We have two options. Either the whole universe appeared out of nothing by chance and our existence is the result of a miraculous series of coincidences, or there is a God who made everything. Scientists look at the evidence, form a hypothesis and see if it fits the observed facts. Does the presence of a Divine Being fit with the universe as we see it? Although we can differ in our understanding of God, the majority of the world’s population believe in a Divine Being.
